FOR SALE IS A SUPER CLEAN AND DASHINGLY HANDSOME WALTHAM SKIN-DIVER IN NEAR MINT CONDITION.
-
CASE: SLEEK AND SEXY ALL-STEEL CASE MEASURING A NICE 36.8mm ACROSS BEZEL NOT INCLUDING ORIGINAL SIGNED CROWN BY 43mm LUG TO LUG. CASE IS IN REALLY SHARP CONDITION WITH SOME VERY MINOR CASE OPENING MARKS ON THE CASE-BACK. CHECK OUT THOSE SUPER SHARP AND EDGY FACETED LUGS. THE ROTATING FRICTION BEZEL IS IN PHENOMENAL SHAPE AND LOOKS PRACTICALLY MINT. I LOVE THE LOW-SLUNG AND THIN PROFILE OF THIS PIECE WHICH GIVES IT A NICE DRESSY FEEL.
-
DIAL: THIS DIAL IS SERIOUSLY SUBLIME. THE DARK SLATE GREY BACKGROUND IS EXTRA CLASSY, AND I LOVE THOSE COOL FACETED STEEL MARKERS. THE LUME SLIVERS HAVE TAKEN ON A SUBTLE AGED PATINA WHICH PERFECTLY MATCH THE TRITIUM ON THOSE CLEAN STICK HANDS. I LOVE THAT TEXTURED LINEN SEGMENT THAT RUNS THROUGH THE DIAL WHICH GIVES THIS FACE SOME ADDED DEPTH. I DIG THAT RALLYE DESIGN ABOVE THE MINUTE TRACK AND THAT CHERRY RED SWEEPER HAND WHICH ADDS A NICE POP OF COLOR.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS WALTHAM RUNS ON A BULLETPROOF SWISS 17JEWEL A.SCHILD MANUAL WINDER. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN BUT THE MOVEMENT WINDS SMOOTHLY AND KEEPS EXCELLENT TIME.
- WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A SEXY CHOCOLATE BROWN STRAP WHICH LOOKS SUPPLE AND SEXY ON THIS SKIN-DIVER. THESE WALTHAMS ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITE DIVERS OF THE ERA. THEY HAVE A NICE UNDERSTATED SOPHISTICATION AND REALLY CAN GO FROM BEING A DRESS DIVER TO A WEEKEND WARRIOR.
